I'm sure this has been asked a million times but I'll add one more. Has anyone had the privilege of using both devices? Which would you choose and why? I understand this is the DNA forums and I have also asked on the iPhone forums around and have gotten mixed reviews everywhere. Opinions are nice if you don't mind sharing. Thanks ahead of time.
They both have their perks. I've always been an Android guy, but I don't hate on iOS like most others here. I have an iPad and I love it.
The iPhone 5 is a really solid device. It's simple, and some people like that. The battery life is definitely better. I feel like I spend half my time on my phone trying to find out what's keeping it from going into deep sleep, etc. Also, the menu button at the bottom of a lot of apps is really annoying (I have a ROM that lets me remap it, but I'm talking about stock devices here). I feel like that would be unacceptable on an iOS device. The messaging app is my last annoyance, as it redraws so damn much. I was watching my friend with the iPhone 5 in class the other day and her messaging app is fast as hell and never redraws.
That being said, I wouldn't trade my DNA for an iPhone 5. It has its quirks, but I love it. I love the big, beautiful screen (I think the size of the i5 is just really awkward). I love being able to customize my phone, and I love having more than just a static grid for home screens.
I just signed up with Verizon I've always been a android person held both phones in my hand iPhone 5 didn't like the size camera to me wasn't impressive and I just don't like the os much and the icons I know it could be jail broken but I'm so happy with the DNA beautiful phone

So I'm still debating the Note 2 or the S4. The size of the Note is great because I read a lot and I like the..... well I just like the size. The S pen is somthing that I think I would use a lot. But I've heard that it gets boring after a month. I understand that the hardware is better in absolutely every respect on the S4. But I still don't know. Are you happy with your Note 2

Honestly my advice would be go to store and check them both out side by side so you can actually see and feel the differences. I personally like the size and the s pen on the Note 2 and wouldn't consider an upgrade until possibly the Note 3. I've had mine for a few months and have yet to get "bored"

Seriously, do you think you won't get "bored" with S4 or One after 2-3 months max? The initial "wow" factor wears off for almost all phones. But for me, it's been actually the opposite, personally. This is the only phone which managed to grow on me.
Rest of the phones, after the "honeymoon period" gets boring too, trust me. But with Note II, you're left with a good screen with more screen real estate and excellent battery life. So even if it gets boring, you'd be left with an excellent, stable device that you can trust as using your daily driver. And we've still had users who switched back to Note 2 after going to HTC One et al for the same, which in itself speaks volume IMO

I find after a month or more of use, that I'm using the pen more and more. I take pics and annotate them all the time now, for personal notes, or to send to others. I use it to take all my job-related notes (I work in IT) and always have them with me, 24/7. Definitely not bored!
My Nexus 7 is suffering from separation anxiety, however.
I use my SPen to take notes in meetings almost everyday. I can't see a reason to ever get another phone without Spen.
I've only had mine for a couple of days but I already know that this phone is going to stick with me for the long haul.
I come from the old school days of the stylus with my first being the original palm Pilot 1000 and the last resistive touchscreen being an Sch-i730
I loved that phone to death even though the call quality and battery life was horrid. When the touchscreen went out on it I died a little inside. Capacitive touch screens took away the enjoyment of a stylus and even third party ones just didn't do it for me. With the note II it brought back the same feeling I had with the i730 that died on me 5 years ago.
Don't underestimate the S-Pen's capabilities, the Wacom technology combined with Samsung's extensive software makes it a very powerful device. The phone is huge and you don't really grasp the size until you see a working one with the screen on. That can swing either way on the pro's and cons list depending on the users personal requirements. for me though sometimes it feels too excessive (phone calls) but mostly I am thankful for it. Overall though I am glad it is so big.
I highly suggest you get the note II first and take it for a test drive and try to use the S-Pen as much as you can. If you don't like it then go exchange it for the S4. The S-Pen is a unique feature only found on the note and best try it now then never at all.
I have not been on these forums in a while (years) because I took an apple cruise. Was there user reset on inactive users or something?
great phone!
Note 2 or 3 ONLY!
The size still bothers me at times. I have smaller hands and will cramp a little if I hold my phone for longer periods of time.
Other than that... no regrets. Watching Dish on it is awesome! Also... other Animes and videos. I don't use the spen too much so I can't comment on that. Overall best android phone that I've had. I am still stock and unrooted and super bloated but it is snappy and it works exactly as I want it to. I've had it for 2 months now.
one of the best phones out their and my personal favorite.
Yes. happy. Hopefully the Note 3 is thinner with less bezel and a bigger screen.

The S-Pen's utility for me is not in writing notes or making drawings. It's in the fine control it offers (pinpoint clicking, etc) and the gestures you can do with it...screenshots, image clipping, and more. And if you buy GMD Spen Control, you can make as many custom gestures as you want.

+1 on this too by the way. I can't explain how much it helps me from those annoying "misclicks" - and even expanding some items with the hover like feature. I use it mostly for typing and mostly browsing. Note taking/drawings is a major plus, but I use it mainly for browsing and typing rather.
I played with my boss's S4 the other day...it's a nice phone and looks a bit higher end than the note 2, but the only real difference you will notice day to day is the size. If you can manage the larger size, the additional screen space (plus the s-pen) make it a pretty easy choice. If you want a smaller device, the S4 is a great phone. Felt really solid, fast, etc. I for one love the bigger screen and could probably never go smaller again.
I've the note 2 since March and I came from the GS3. I've had the note 10.1 since the Summer, & that's What made me go for the note 2. qm So happy I did! And I'm definitely looking forward to hearing what the Specks of the note 3 will be. I wasn't even tempted, When the HTC one or the S4 came out because of the S pen! I can't live without it! I too use it at meetings to take notes and to jot things down quickly! It's great not having to carry pen and paper!

Since this is general, discuss.
I noticed a lot of things that are very similar to what android had 6+ months ago. Sbeam or their new "airdrop" being one of them. And I'm pretty sure their animated weather was taken from Sense.
Either way. Good refresh. iOS7=ICS/jellybean.

Wow, I didn't even know it was out. Dammit, I just updated my iPad which is a pita on a jail broken device.
Anyway, I'm not really a huge fan of iOS, in fact I kind of hate it. But the pictures look really nice. I definitely am seeing the android references. Particularly some sense 5 influence.
But yeah the camera looks just like the jb camera, multitasking is obviously android inspired, so is the keyboard, "control center," the new safari is also a direct rip off of chrome, etc.
Still no gesture typing.

Almost every single "new" feature in iOS 7, Android has had for a while. Also they managed to make an uglier UI than Touchwiz, bravo Apple.
I need to watch some videos on it but judging by the stills I've seen I'm not impressed. I despise iphones and can't really stand my fiances ipad 2. It just feels clunky next to my nexus 7 and all the various android phones I've had. I might enjoy an iPhone if they'd make them wider.

I have only looked at some of the pictures that have been posted on facebook, but thus far most of it looks like stuff I had on my RAZR a year and a half ago.
Looks interesting. Not an iFan at all, but like was posted above; Apple does make a pretty, albeit feature-lacking interface, and it does it well for the masses who don't want to be burdened down with silly things like choice. I work as a sysadmin/support desk person and have to support a lot of BYOD stuff, so I picked up an iPhone 4 for a ridiculously low price (guy wanted a 750gb data drive and so I traded straight up the other day.) Will be interested to see if iOS7 will be supported on the iPhone 4.
As much as I love my newly S-OFFed DNA, the screen on the iPhone is much more crisp and well-defined. Wish HTC would have made a slightly better display, but i can say that it's nice to have 1080 support!

I ended up with a couple iPhone 4s also, neither screen comes close to the DNA. I even prefer my gnex screen over them. Oddly they don't even match each other, I'm thinking one was a replacement at some point, its a little cooler then the other iPhone is. There's an app I use to watch movies and its really crappy on the iPhone screen, blacks blur together, brightness and contrast is lackluster, resolution isn't that great. To the point I use airpin to watch them on...my DNA or gnex.
Either we have very different tastes in screens, I have two crappy screens, or I'm spoiled by android screens, the DNA in particular.
It'll be fun to see how iOS 7 plays out, though I won't do it until at least a tether jailbreak.
Tapatalked from my HTC DNA - Carbon
From what i've seen on videos of iOS 7 , it's a win. I've been knocking the iphone/ipad since i jumped to Android for the Galaxy Fascinate. This update will resolve the main problem areas i've seen.
1) Crappy notifications, that can't be accessed from the lock screen. - FIXED.
2) powertools or some way to quickly get access to common settings. - FIXED.
3) Task manager that shows pics (like Android or WebOS) - FIXED.
4) Back button or swipe back(Windows) - FIXED.
5) Widgets - NO
...
There is still a long way to go for iOS, but this is a big step in the right direction;
It finally has android beam!!!!!
Its a major update for the people who use amd like it. My brother has a iphone4 and seems to like it.........I cant stand them.

Anyone see the new Mac pro? They didn't listen to the pro users at all. The specs are nice but there's no expandability... No pro tools HD cards, no cuda, no multiple hard drives, etc unless you want to plug in a bunch of different adapters and stuff to the thunderbolt ports. I guess I'll be sticking with hackintoshes for a while... On the other hand, osx 10.9 actually has some useful features, without adding any useless features.

Yeah I think the reason they were able to patent it is because i think it still transfers over WiFi, even though NFC initiates it. Still though, nothing new there... Wireless file transfers are old news. Is there even a current Apple device with NFC?

Yeah, I think it might be perception. I don't know how to describe it - side by side, the iPhone's display seems to have deeper blacks, and seems to have a sharper contrast. I agree the overall the DNA is a much better screen, but there's something that has a vaguely superior look to the iPhone's screen. Could just be the carefully designed graphics engineered by Apple to give the impression of a display better than it actually is, for all I know.

I don't know. It really is a personal issue. I don't like smaller screens to begin with but even back when it first came out the contrast seemed way out of whack for me and looked washed out to a point. Then again though color wise I am also in the minority that dislikes the super amoleds due to over saturation. Although the HTC Thunderbolt had its flaws I liked its screen for the time.
There is no doubt that the iPhone screen is nice. I love the way my DNA screen is but the iPhone screen is good too, just too small for my liking.

Yeah, I get that. I was always wowed by the Super AMOLEDs for exactly the reason that you don't like them, but I suppose if you're going for true color precision, Super AMOLED is probably not a very accurate means of display. Either way, no complaints here about my DNA's screen - I love it, just noticed a big difference between the two when I picked up that iPhone 4, and it kind of surprised me.
Dri94 - Cool. Looking forward to giving it a test drive when it becomes available.
Pio, I'll be looking forward to the untethered jailbreak as well. From what I understand, it very well could be pretty soon after iOS 7 is released, as long as at least one of the many recent exploits the devs have been hoarding will be applicable. I'd be really surprised if iOS7 turns out being a total rewrite. Keeping fingers crossed that they will still be building upon at least some of the iOS 6 framework.
Anyone want to chime in on which one is currently the best phone? Both have huge screens lol Devs will probably support the S4 more right?
Check this out maybe it'll help your decision.
Step one: go to Google
Step two: search "geekaphone galaxy note 2 vs s4"
Step three: click the first link.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
The s4 would be sweet if it didn't run so hot. The note 2 may be slightly less powerful specs wise but itsbthe total package unless your all about touchwiz gimmicks like scrolling the page your reading with your eyes or swiping your hand over the screen to change pages on kindle.
All of which will be added to the note 2 in future updates and will be made better by develpers here on xda. These guys are like the BASF of android
They dont make a lot of the products you buy the make a lot of the products you buy BETTER. LoL
I was in the same boat as you were, note 2 or the s4. Both have comparable specs, as mentioned above if you like and have to have those addons right now go with the s4. I chose the N2.
Why? The screen is huge, amazing and great for watching videos and playing games. The s-pen is awesome and handy. Eventually the n2 will get the features of the s4 as well so its really gonna come down to screen size and which features you prefer right now.
Also the Dev community the N2 has some amazing devs so does the s4 I don't see either being more or less above the other. If there's an amazing phone there will always be someone to dev for it. And in this case the n2 and the s4 aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
I believe the Note 2 is the better phone. I own one so I don't know how much my opinion matters but although it has less specs the bigger screen and the SPen makes it one hell of a device. Its specs are still Kore than enough for modern apps but won't win any benchmarks.
Also, I think a 720P screen is not only enough but better than a 1080P screen since it allows for better performance without noticing much of a difference (I own a Nexus 10 and can say the difference in resolution is not something I notice very often).
First Qs go in Q&A
Second there is a sticky thread to discuss other devices where you can compare to Note 2

Note 3 looks nice, can't really argue that. However, it's still not a beautiful phone like the one. I get compliments on it wherever I go. That's a great feeling. The one is a wow phone, the gn3 isn't really that impressive. It's got a whole list of cool features I think would be fun to have, however i wouldn't trade my one for them. It's really up to what you like. If you think you'll use the stylus for more than just fooling around with the features and showing your friends, get it! If you're going to use it as a cool party trick or just to say your phone can do that, stick with the one.

I used to think that until I had the One long enough to worry about its safety, now it looks like a phone in a case. A nice case, but still a case.
-So beauty is mostly moot.
The note is solely for people who will use the stylus, and I would. Drawing and writing freehand would be a great addition for work and play plus they'd be party tricks that other phones can't do.
-So the note is a better social crutch phone.
The ability to learn every bars TV remote, AC units, SoundFreaq stereo, and a half dozen other random IR gadgets I use daily?
Only the One can learn any code letting me never have to suffer through football games at bars(discovery channel!), secretly change the temperature/volume from my desk, couch, bed, HTC made a damn good choice by adding a IR receiver as well as blaster...
I'm not against your choice of wanting to switch, just take a long look at touchwiz on the s4 because I didn't do that and I ended up hating the s4 because of touchwiz and now I'm back with the one, just make sure you know what your getting into and then ur decision will be easy, I'm happy to be a one owner just give me 4.3 already haha

i think the note 3 is awesome, accept for touchwiz. the snapdragon 800 processor, clocked at 2.3GHz with an Adreno 330 GPU and 3gbs of ram would be a nice upgrade. also a bigger screen and bigger battery that is removable. as long as it isnt laggy like the s4 is. i took that phone back because of the horrible lag. lol
I went from the note to the note 2 then to the HTC one. I'll probably swap it out again once the note 3 is released. It looks like a great phone. Not that there's anything wrong with the one. But I personally have a phone addiction

Coming from a GS2 to my One.. I miss the hell out of Touchwiz. Not in design, but functionality. Sense is a fricking nightmare to do anything on. Touchwiz on the other hand doesn't pull any tricks. Touchwiz still works with USB mass storage mode, doesn't have the EQ locked down to the crappy Beats EQ, easy to remove bloatware (won't reinstall on boot like Sense does)
While Sense is faster, better looking and smoother, Touchwiz just flat out much more functional and works better. It's getting to the point where I'm considering giving up the One for a GS4. As much as I love the speakers, screen quality, and build quality, using it is just a pain. I can't even get accurate data transfer speeds in Windows.
Just my opinion though.
Sent from my One using XDA Premium HD app
Love my HTC One, the options and everything are great. The UI isn't difficult at all, I find it nice on the eyes, and easy to use. Build quality is firm and nice and no issues at all on first handset. Did I need the upgrade coming from the s3? Absolutely not.. Was it worth the 650$ absolutely, but I was disgusted with my s3. It's plastic and cartoonish looks just annoyed me lol. I get compliments up the wazoo about my One, looks and feels great all around, and the stock launcher has enough good I don't even use my paid Nova or Apex or Action Launcher or any of them, sense has the greatest Widgets and looks out the box. Other than that no expandable storage is annoying for some, and no removable battery as well I guess. 32 GB is plenty for me, and I bought an external charger that does wonders on certain types of days or emergency's. It's all user preference in the long run.
Wait for the One Max?

I work at Best Buy and my Samsung rep had a Note 3 when he came in last week. It is a very nice looking and feeling device. The deep black with a brushed look on the front and the the leather back and metal looking sides are nice to hold and look at. It is super quick and I experienced no lag. It has some very cool features and I really liked it, but it's just too big for me. Although it felt nice to hold and not too large in my hand. You are talking about two completely different devices with the One and the Note 3.

Im getting rid of my One because I for the Moto X. As far as a samsung device... You gotta be crazy to get into that TW crap.
Should have got the Cimo grip back clear TPU case look it up on Amazon. Only case for the HTC One should have come in the box. Looks naked preserving all the beauty of the phone with the protection of a D30. $10 get one till be so glad you did it's TPU so it's a super firm plastic almost like a hard case with some flex but it softens up a bit with use. But the firmness gives way more protection then a silicone case. I had a D30 on my old phone they feel identical. Great case for those of us that appreciate the beauty of this phone.
